[Hook: Danny Keyz]

It's been a long time coming..

Days, days are turning to nights now

They said... they said I'd be okay

But when I hear those church bells ringing

I begin to pray for today might be my dying day


[Verse 1: RZA]

The great mind, surpass space and time

Seven plains of energy, interlace combine

Five conscious stages, stand up courageous

Change your polarity, seek mental clarity

Ziplock off the chronic, kissed it, then I twist it

Build on today's mathematic ballistics

I walk with the utmost honorable respect

It's a quick locked secret, so Protect Ya Neck

This is Full Metal Jacket, ain't about that gossip

Nope, you get your face all over the Bossip

Go out the closet, you slimey sausage

Six degrees of luxury, with no deposit

They said a ? beats a ?

A plane beats a tank, a gat beats a shank

Look, I just hit jackpot, a hundred mil to the bank


[Hook: Danny Keyz]

It's been a long time coming..

Days, days are turning to nights now

They said... they said I'd be okay

But when I hear those church bells ringing

I begin to pray for today might be my dying day


[Verse 2: RZA]

The continent splitter, the dominant figure

The mathematician who calculated God from nigga

The Zig Zag Zigga, who civilize the wigga

My vigorous attack on the track, slice a thousand giga

Bytes of information, in one line, how sometime

Use the sky for a blanket, then I bathe in sunshine

Nine concubines and nine wives, nine lives

Nine clansmen sit on my side, we carry nine knives

Eighteen strikes from Low Hand, ain't no man

Can withstand the blow, from the Wu-Tang Clan

I answer many questions of life, without asking

Breath in the stench of death, without gasping

Fasting and praying, while you laughing and playing

I am fast in my mind, to attachment what we came in

And go through the river of life, I stay floating

Live a hundred twenty degrees without quoting


[Hook: Danny Keyz]

It's been a long time coming..

Days, days are turning to nights now

They said... they said I'd be okay

But when I hear those church bells ringing

I begin to pray for today might be my dying day


[Verse 3: RZA]

I have no fascination with Satan, no relation to probation

I'm the sun sitting still, while you trapped in rotation

Every breath is creation, every thought is innovation

One demonstration, we civilized a whole entire nation

Attract a generation, who's built with elimination

Of wickedness and sickness, we striving for the bliss

We rising up our fists, five stage of consciousness

Keeping our promises, master our circumference


[Hook: Danny Keyz]

It's been a long time coming..

Days, days are turning to nights now

They said... they said I'd be okay

But when I hear those church bells ringing

I begin to pray for today might be my dying day


[Outro: RZA]

Yeah, I'm back

Sometimes, you think you bout to lose it all

But it's actually, the point that you made it all

It seems like life is gonna pass me by

But now I'm reborn to a new chance, a new opportunity

A life has just begun...

And if we having a good time, but wasting your time

Seven plains of energy must interlace and combine

And all praises due to the Most High...

I'm here forever!
